Chapter 668 War of Public Opinion (44)

*After all, four changes have been completed

The start of the game is just around the corner, and many media have only mentioned the games of several strong teams such as the Warriors, Clippers, Lakers, and Eagles in short paragraphs. Most of the pages have been given to the highly topical and controversial Cowboys!
This kind of treatment, for the weak Cowboys, is simply rare in recent years. Regardless of whether this topic itself is praise or derogation, just the bombing broadcast of the national sports media has given the Cowboys great exposure. Rate.

If the Cowboys play an excellent performance this time, maybe they can take this opportunity to soar!
Of course, it is based on fame, and the true positioning of strength still needs to be tested in dozens of games.

But if fame can be maintained for a long time, it is a great benefit in itself.

More fans means more viewers, and the broadcasting fee will make a lot of money. Various sports merchandise and tickets are also not a small income. Endorsements, sponsorships, etc., the dollars are rolling in!
Even Qin Yi's small calculation of applying for government funding to build a new arena is not impossible!
Well, this is all for the future, our attention still has to turn to the upcoming events.

The improvement of the strength of the Cowboys naturally means that some teams will be pulled down. Of course, no team is willing to see this kind of thing.

So except for those few powerful teams, such as the Cavaliers, Warriors, Thunder, Raptors, etc., most of the remaining teams and their supporters are belittling the Cowboys, either explicitly or covertly, in an attempt to influence the players. The emotions of the Cowboys failed in their attempt to turn around!
For example, the Chicago Tribune, New York Times, New York Post, Detroit Daily, etc., not only attacked Rubio, but also pointed out Downs' weak style, LaVine's crappy three-pointers, Wiggins' super unstable, etc. thing!

Even Garnett, the former ace in semi-retirement, suffered misfortune and was called by a tabloid in Memphis as "the poor free-eating disabled wolf king and the biggest burden of the Cowboys".
Although these shameless remarks angered a large number of Garnett fans and Cowboys fans, causing many fans to attack the opponent's official website and paralyzed the network for a while, the war of words on the forum has already started, and the purpose of confusing the water has been Reached!
The despicable tricks of this group of shameless villains who hurt the fans' feelings certainly don't stop there.

When the muddy waters were raging, many people in the media and sports circles who had been scruples before finally mustered up the courage to point the finger at Duncan and Ginobili.

"The poor guy who was swept away by the Thunder last year, the loser who didn't even have a retirement ceremony, went bankrupt in just half a year? Look at this ugly eating! Oh, damn, let me look through the data, I want to check, is this new? Fastest Bankruptcy Record for a Retired Player! What the hell, you guys have caused us a lot of trouble, you know? Why can't I just let me have two more days off, for God's sake!"

Taunting the two of them for being open-eyed, shameless, occupying positions with a lot of old people, and not giving young people a chance
By the way, Qin Yi was also scolded bloody, "Young man who gets carried away", "Sell your wine", "Raising cattle is what you can do".
Come on, although only a small half of the media scolded him, the other party's goal has been achieved. After all, the effect of scolding will not be discounted by the number of participants. Anyone who is scolded will not be happy!

Seeing these vicious, despicable, and hypocritical reports, Ke Luo and the others were out of breath, and even threatened to sue the slanderous media and individuals!
These damned bugs deserve to be thrown into African cannibal tribes, strung like twisted twists on sticks and grilled over a fire!
Qin Yi and his team were attacked so much, his friends naturally would not sit idly by.

The first to speak out were some celebrity friends in the entertainment industry. Peter, Julie and others all expressed their support for the Cowboys on their personal Twitter. Due to schedule and other reasons, I can only wait in front of the TV for the live broadcast.

Montana and Minnesota are the spheres of influence of the Cowboys, and the voice of support is the fastest and the highest. The media and fans in the two states spare no effort to set off a counterattack, and many critics have also written articles to scold each other.

Immediately afterwards, the Nuggets, Bucks and Spurs also clearly expressed their support for the Cowboys in interviews, saying that basketball, as an influential sporting event, should maintain the minimum competitive spirit!

Especially the Spurs, the behavior of some shameless media pouring dirty water on Duncan and Ginobili has also deeply affected them. Coach Popovich is still restrained, but Parker and other players are more angry , There is a faint posture of advancing and retreating with the Cowboys!
The brotherhood of more than ten years is relatively reliable after all.

The statements of the three teams also made the public opinion in the three places lean towards the Cowboys, and the voice of counterattack became louder.

Moreover, the Warriors, Cavaliers and other powerful teams, as well as the objective evaluation of the media forces behind them, also supported the Cowboys' counterattack from the side.

Time soon came to the afternoon. Scott from Montana and Baucus from Kentucky both tweeted that they were fans of the Cowboys and said some words of encouragement in their personal capacity, which caused an uproar in the public opinion.

It is not uncommon for politicians to appear in the sports world, but it is a rare anecdote to intervene in the chaos of the sports world. Although the statement is in a private capacity, the official identity is there and cannot be ignored. !

Political figures with huge influence also appeared, which boosted the morale of the Cowboys, and the wave of counterattack intensified.

The voices of Scott and Box also kicked off the prelude to reinforcements from politicians and celebrities!
Seeing that Qin Yi's forces began to show strength, some small media that had no foundation and only wanted to fish in troubled waters to earn sales, immediately backed down. Soon, the small and miscellaneous media withdrew from the attacking alliance, and only the large and medium-sized media were still refusing to follow suit. Not forgiving.

The Propaganda Department of the Cowboys teamed up with Qin's Liquor to carry out emergency public relations on good contacts and forces. California, which is the traditional sphere of influence of Qin's Liquor, will soon join the counterattack alliance. Congressman George also said in "private" that he would Follow the Cowboys' game performance.

Some states that do not belong to the team have also gradually changed their neutral attitude under the operation of each specialty store, and some media have participated unwillingly, standing on the commanding heights of morality, and launching an offensive against the vicious criticism of the league.

Following the statements of the Nuggets and Bucks, the owners of the two teams, Kroenke and Mallory, also expressed their curiosity about the performance of the Cowboys. The honorary president of the Cowboys, Old Tyronn, stood at the top of the counterattack early on. Line, shout out loud for the Cowboys.
Compared with the diverse supporters of the Cowboys from all walks of life, the critics of the league that provoked disputes are just the media on stage to sing a big show, and the teams or other supportive forces behind them died down early.

Although they are not afraid of counterattacking the alliance when they unite, it is really unwise to stand against so many influential political and business people for the sake of malicious slander that has no obvious effect.

And if the Cowboys are really strong, slander may suppress it for a schedule or two, but long-term suppression is unrealistic.

However, after this battle, Qin Yi's strong connections and potential power have attracted many people's attention. At first, many people thought that Qin Yi only made a lot of dollars by relying on beef and wine. Only today did he find out that secretly There is such a complex network of relationships!

Many people have begun to think about new ways to get along with Qin Yi.

However, Qin Yi, who had just led a big counterattack, was a little proud, but he didn't feel any complacency about it.

Now he has some influence, but he still needs guidance and even requests to gather such a force of his own, which may not be as good as a small consortium, let alone those super business empires!

The road ahead is still long!
